Plain-English Summary
The legislation would create a new Foundation for Digital Opportunity to help expand internet access and digital skills training across the country, particularly in underserved communities. This would affect rural areas, low-income neighborhoods, and other regions that currently lack reliable broadband or technology education programs. The foundation would work to bridge the digital divide by funding projects that connect people to high-speed internet and teach them how to use technology effectively.
